Welcome to Industry 4.0 – the fourth industrial revolution – where accelerated digitisation and technological advances are radically disrupting almost every business sector and altering the way we live, work and relate. Leaders need to equally prioritise strategic direction and human connection.
Enter Leadership 4.0
Women’s more democratic, collaborative and relational leadership style is well-suited to drive the transformation needed for Industry 4.0. We also know that companies with more female leaders outperform those with fewer.
So why are there still so few female leaders? Only a quarter of executive leadership positions in Australia are currently filled by women. There is mounting pressure to shift this stubborn imbalance. This sits alongside growing calls for more ambitious targets for female representation.
Step up. Stand out.
Women need to be supported to step up and stand out.
Next Level Women is a Leadership 4.0 executive education program for women. It has been expertly designed by Dr Anne Lytle and Sharon Longridge who bring decades of experience to this transformative learning experience. This program can be customised for emerging or senior leaders.
Next Level Women addresses the particular challenges facing women in, and advancing into, leadership positions. These include influencing critical stakeholders, initiating difficult conversations, negotiating deals that deliver, strengthening confidence and raising her professional profile.
This highly interactive, practical program will equip women with the tools, techniques, support and mindsets they need to shape and lead the future of work.
Learning design that embeds change
Next Level Women applies best-practice learning design to maximise sustained behaviour change. Spanning five modules, this blended program includes
- live learning sessions
- one-on-one coaching
- peer mentoring
- On-demand tools
- 360 survey - pre & post
We bring rigour to measuring impact. The Elevating Leaders Index (ELi) is a proprietary tool created by Leadium that measures learning transfer and quantifies behaviour change. ELi collects 360-degree feedback from diverse stakeholders relevant to each participant. It compares these perceptions with self-reports.
Participants undertake a customised action learning project where they immediately apply the program's evidence-based techniques and insights.
